Hmm, this seems up to date...  So, you should also have the postinstall
script /etc/postinstall/base-files-mketc.sh.done.  If you don't, something
went wrong when executing that postinstall script -- /var/log/setup.log
should contain some details.  Otherwise, simply rerun the script -- no
need to reinstall base-files.
